Focusing on the state of zoological knowledge during his era, Louis Agassiz's lecture course presents a comprehensive overview of science that highlights its social and cultural significance. Despite the impending challenge posed by Darwin's theory of evolution, Agassiz's work remains relevant for its idealistic approach to scientific inquiry, reflecting the values and beliefs of 19th-century science. His lectures underscore the importance of understanding science within a broader societal context.
